Default Thinner head gaskets to yield higher comression?

By any chance does anyone know where I can get a hold of some thinner reusable head gaskets for my ls1 camaro.I have 10:8:1 compression now but I was wanting to bump it up to 11:1:1 because it is a lot easier than doing the old piston install.Thank you.

yes a thinner head gasket would raise the cr.. not my a significant amount i'm sure.. and not really any power to be made by doing so.. just a tad of throttle response from what i hear.
